Best Answer

If the DSL modem is connected to a router that Windows 98 is connected to, or if Windows 98 is connected directly via an Ethenet cable, then yes. Most new DSL modems won't work if you connect them via a USB cable, but the Ethernet will still work.

What hardware do you need for windows 98 dsl connectivity?

At the minimum, you will need a DSL modem and a computer with USB ports. Not all DSL modems support Windows 98 through USB, though. If your modem doesn't support Windows 98 on USB, then you will need at a minimum an Ethernet card and a crossover cable. If you want to share the connection with multiple computers, you need an Ethernet or Wi-fi router, and either a wireless card or Ethernet card and cable for each computer.
